Recently, friend of Hockey Wilderness Patrik B of our sister site Eyes on the Prize conducted a phone interview with Montreal Canadiens prospect Magnus Nygren. The interview, which you can read here, covers 25 year-old defenseman's journey from Sweden to the AHL, and then back to Sweden.
In addition to discussing the concussion which led him to return home, and his possible future in Montreal, the Färjestad Captain was asked if there was anyone in the Swedish Hockey League he felt could be a star. He pointed out his teammate Joel Eriksson Ek, a center who the Minnesota Wild drafted in the first round this season.
